Overview

Join us for an exciting symposium that will emulate a typical day in the life of a community hematologist or oncologist, highlighting the diversity of hematologic malignancies and the complex decisions that practitioners face daily through a series of patient cases. A panel of expert hematologists/oncologists will evaluate challenging patient scenarios using recent clinical data, treatment guidelines, and best practices to optimize access to care. The symposium will emphasize patient-centric care and shared decision-making as key priorities, addressing the practical challenges that busy community clinicians often encounter. By highlighting real-world cases and evidence-based strategies, the event aims to promote the integration of innovative treatments and improve patient outcomes in the community setting.
